[QUOTE="Mrhorsepowerlsx, post: 3033, member: 395"] I'm a fan of no replacement for displacement, so every chance I can buy a 6.0 for anything I do. Pros of a 6.0 Factory 4" bore, full floating rods (LQ9), High Compression Hypereutectic pistons (LS2/LQ9), .020 over sized on some select models for more HP. Cons: Cast iron blocks ( trucks/vans/boats) Aluminum ( all cars and TBSS's). And contrary to belief, they all rev high, some just not as high as others as weight, intake, gear ratio, etc.... all play a factor. Just buy a 6.0 and call it a day. You can always keep it stock and be happy with a larger engine , then have a smaller one and have to spend $$$ to mod it to equal the perf. benefits of a larger motor. Hope this helps IDLE CLIP [URL=http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee455/MrHorsepowerLSx/Mobile%20Uploads/trimF1610438-7CF0-4F62-9DD7-E94508C8B7D3_zpsdbd7aad3.mp4][IMG]http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee455/MrHorsepowerLSx/Mobile%20Uploads/th_trimF1610438-7CF0-4F62-9DD7-E94508C8B7D3_zpsdbd7aad3.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1228.photobucket.com/user/MrHorsepowerLSx/media/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsa7b2a527.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee455/MrHorsepowerLSx/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsa7b2a527.jpg[/IMG][/URL] My Truck is 6.0 based, TSP cam (224/228 .581/.588 114 LSA) [/QUOTE]
